It is very social with other wolves, and lives in packs of about five to thirty-five. It is an endangered subspecies, very shy, and is rarely seen by humans.[2] Wolves at the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve area have been known to attack and kill unguarded domestic dogs.[3] There are also two Vancouver Island Wolves, one white and one grey (seen from the bus window) at the Greater Vancouver Zoo.[4]
